It's like with suicides, always a lovely young girl who was doing so well in life or something. You come up with all these other factors and dodge the actual point. The media is fickle and so are people in some cases. Everyone is guilty of it.

I'm not missing any point. I was addressing a particular post that MTVN made and towards a link that they posted - and all of what I said was relevant - not dodging the point as you have stated (ie: bringing other factors into it) - read MTVN's post and you will understand why I said what I did in my reply to them. I've addressed 'your point' several times over on this thread.
Sorry if you disagree, but that's the way life works. I disagree that the media are being fickle. Joanna's story has gone from a missing person hunt over several days to a finding the missing person dead ..... and now trying to establish whether it was murder or not. It's hardly a 'like for like' scenario is it.
That's a bit different from a 53 year old man being murdered, and within 1 day of his body being found, someone has actually been arrested in connection with being responsible.
Twist it all you like, but those are the facts of the matter. Those ARE the points. Joanna was missing since 17 December: the hunt for her went on since the 17 December, appeals to the public at her parents and local police requests: until they found her body yesterday: now the story has changed to establishing whether she was murdered or not.
Now which part of 'my points' is it that you aren't quite understanding? The story began as a missing person story - and has ended up in a possible murder investigation. The media have continued the story due to the changes that happened. It's not that difficult to understanad. (and I far preferred Scrooge!)
ps. the Romanian guy was reported as being 53. Not 52.
